Nokia declares N-Gage a failure.

I hope so. They got some strangely good games (a few at least) for such an unpopular system.

I always wanted the Puyo Pop for it, it looks like a port of Super Puyo Puyo, without everything about it being replaced by Kirby or Sonic. If it drops to $25, I might finally get to try that.

Nokia will be back, you can bet on it.

Agreed. Whatever they come back with, I imagine it'll be good.

I think their 4gb phones will probably prove quite successful. People are loving their images/videos/music on the move, it'll only be a matter of time before they warm up to the idea of having all of that + great looking games in one cellphone.

Maybe they should drop Nintendo a line before they solidy next gen Gameboy plans...
 
My dream device (something that will never happen):

GSM Cell phone
Gaming capabilities on par with modern-gen consoles
Camera of 3 MP or more (dreaming)
Video + Photo + Music
Tabbed online browsing
4 gig micro HDD

Too bad the world sucks. <3

so where the fuck is the PowerVR MBX based next-gen Ngage ? :(

No more N-gage but it will live on in many phones. Kinda like Terminator :P Certain phones will be game friendly like that prototype they showed and graphical capabilities will vary. First devices will be with us by end of next year. Alot of people fail to give Nokia credit for their online services. Its what MS and Sony seem to be emulating. Like xbox 360 for example.

Nokia will release software for your pc in the future so you can manage stuff from your pc too and will compliment the games side of your phone. Also handy if you dont want to pay for internet on the go which most people still fall into. Games can also be brought and downloaded. I wouldnt say Nokia are direct competitors to the console industry but its certainly could end up being like a handheld version of pc gaming.

Give it less than a year. N80 has a 3 megapixel camera, WiFi, higher res screen than PSP. does phot, music and movies, something similar to tabbed browsing but no HDD and special 3d graphics abilities

I'll trade you for 3 damned! And a gba.

I don't know...not worth buying for maybe, but the turn based strategy stuff looks good. And wasted on this platform.
